Hello friends (he said presumptuously),
I've been interested in electronics for 40+ years, but always just as a hobby as it turned out. I made quite a few kits, and then I built my first computer with a Z80 chip 41 years ago. I got hold of the circuit diagram and a printed image of the Sinclair ZX80 circuit board and thought I'd give it a go. From then on I was much more devoted to computers, but I always had ideas where simple circuits could help make life better or more fun, and I brought some of these things to fruition, but not many of them. I am rarely this involved with electronics, but this week I have repaired a DC to DC charger, a 240V 7 stage battery charger, and a VCR. The DC to DC charger had me wanting to ask for help and hence I found this forum. I sorted the problem before I got to make a post, but I thought what a great asset to have access to, so now, here I am.
Thank You for this forum.
Kind regards.
